SCHOLARSHIPS for STUDYING IN CANADA
KILLAM FELLOWSHIP – $6,000 US per semester
Deadline to apply: January 18th
The Killam Fellowships Program provides an opportunity for exceptional undergraduate students from universities in Canada and the United States to spend either one semester or a full academic year as an exchange student in the other country.
Students may participate in the program either as a direct exchange student (registering at their home university, paying their home fees, and attend the host university as an exchange visitor) or as a self-placed visiting student (registering at the host university and paying host tuition fees).
The Killam Fellowships Program provides a cash award of $12,000 US ($6,000 US per semester) plus a health benefit plan. In addition, all Fellows are eligible to apply for a mobility grant in an amount not to exceed $800. The idea of the mobility initiative is to allow students to undertake an educational field trip, providing the Fellows with the opportunity to gain a fuller understanding of the culture of the host country.
Contact Marie-Joëlle St-Louis Savoie (mariejoelle.stlouis@maine.edu) before beginning the application process.
